hi there I am just now reading the responses here. Thank you everyone except the jerk off.I managed to get a few more hours of sleep this morning. I
am NOT certain what more details I can give right now because I wrote that Facebook post immediately upon waking up. And at this moment additional
details would be sparse.

I grew out of my episodes which i wrote extensively about here (edit: under another user name and was years ago). Mainly highly intense sleep
paralysis for about 2 decades.

They used to stop for months and then come back and last for weeks. In addition, i had very vivid dreams but the SP was a whole other level.

My understanding now is that this is a natural fear that someone is there with you in the room and you cannot move and that is why it is so prevalent
AND they definitely always was some kind of "evil entity" involved. Has a lot to do with your own upbringing and what you see. Even horror movies etc.
play a part on the direction the SPnightmares take.

They are stress related and trust me, it is easier to deal with today for the simple fact there is so much written about these on the internet.

Also, you can psyche yourself up to have these so once you have a few you will anticipate them and sure enough...

I am confident that i can have them just telling myself they will begin. I will try bringing one on today if i dose off and if i do will come back and
post. Mine are audible mainly or actually always audible so there is a distinction twixt SP and nightmares.

IDK, has this episode (OP's) been deemed SP? The op seems to have still been screaming in the FB posts.

ETA: It is just a sleep disorder similar to other sleep disorders. A real pain when you keep having them and cannot sleep.

edit on 23-11-2014 by Harvin because: Editing and adding. In addition to the the back slash character hardly works in my posts so two words
stuck together should have a back slash.

yes! I actually have had three nightmares in the past couple of weeks and they all happened at around 2 o'clock a.m.. The previous one I posted here
on 80 S in this forum and a second one was of my brother breaking into my room and I was having a kicking match with him I ended up on the floor in my
dream and I woke up on the floor kicking. Same type of a theme I suppose.

sorry if my previous post sounded dismissive.it sounds like you are suggesting thatthe dream has basis in some reality, even if only my own. That is
certainly what it feels like.I do feel likemy deepest self is trying very hard to make a communication....
